Intense aromas of grape skin hints at a developing petrol note show on the nose. On the palate, this wine is racy and rippling, shimmering with acidity. Notes of lemon zest and wet slate are both beautifully characteristic and incredibly food friendly. Pair this with a weeknight pasta or chicken, and you'll feel like you're enjoying a fancy weekend dinner.

Although this is packed with citrus, pear and white-peach aromas, it's so pure and straight that the simple description "fruity" would be far too one-sided to adequately describe what makes this wine stand out. So energetic that it feels much lighter than it really is (13% alcohol). Fine tannins at the finish underline the dry style.

The fruit for this estate 2021 Riesling is from numerous villages with limestone, sandy and granitic soils. It is blended every year for consistency which here means purity and precision. A lovely tangerine hint characterizes the nose with tart citrus intensity; a touch of smoky reduction is still at play. The palate, likewise, is a picture of tart, juicy, mouth-watering citrus. it's straight, focused, slender, yet alive. Riesling lovers will rejoice at this taut and refreshing cuvee.
